BUS303 Week 5 Discussion 2, The Future of HRM

BUS303 Week 5 Discussion 2, The Future of HRM Today, social media is playing a major role in the selection process. How would the use of such tools as LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook and others impact your decision in finding the right candidate and why would you select such tool(s)? What would be the impact on HR policies? The use of social media sites like LikedIn, Twitter, Facebook and others would impact my decision in finding the right candidate because it gives more advantages than traditional methods for recruiting employees. Online recruiting is more cost-effective than conventional recruiting. It also lets you have access to a larger group of potential candidates, and it gives you the ability to locate the right audience. It shows that the candidates have the technological skills needed for the job. It lets you have faster turnaround time on both ends, easier to access, and it portable. Social recruiting is becoming more prevalent for employers and candidates online and offline for social networking and professional networking. These tools help employers to develop, create, and grow new social platform media to attract the right candidates, it helps to build their company, and gain a competitive edge in their industries. By me using these on tools I’ll be able to target the right candidates, know their techno skills, communicate, and share information faster. The impact on HR policies would make sure everyone can access it, not save passwords, and make sure HR does background checks. I would also make sure that all disclosure laws obeyed. Lastly, I would review what on their social pages and how many they have. Reference Youssef-Morgan, C. (2015). Human resource management (2nd ed.). San Diego, CA: Bridgepoint Education, Inc.
